Starting problems

[whereisgibson]

The hdj80 has needed the pump priming manually three times this weekend, otherwise it just dry cranks without starting.

What should I check?

Could be the vent in the filler cap blocked causing a vacuum in the tank & no fuel at the pump, if you remove the cap listen for a whoosh of air entering the tank.

Filter housing could be letting air in allowing fuel to run back.

Second that. Had that on the white one. Stuck one of these in and that was that.
